Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.5

    \[\log \left(1 + e^{x}\right) - x \cdot y\]

  2. Applied simplify0.5

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\log_* (1 + e^{x}) - y \cdot x}\]
  3. Using strategy rm

  4. Applied add-sqr-sqrt1.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{\log_* (1 + e^{x})} \cdot \sqrt{\log_* (1 + e^{x})}} - y \cdot x\]
